FRANKFURT (Reuters) - More than 45 financial institutions are planning to newly establish themselves or significantly increase their presence in Germany as a result of Britain's planned exit from the European Union, a German official said on Tuesday.

The figure was announced by Felix Hufeld, the president of Germany's financial markets watchdog BaFin. It marks the most up-to-date and authoritative indication of Brexit's impact on Germany's financial landscape.

Among banks that announced plans to relocate some of their EU operations to Frankfurt are Citigroup , JPMorgan Chase , Morgan Stanley , and Standard Chartered [STANB.UL].

In August, Hufeld said that Germany was processing more than 25 banking licences.

Hufeld also called on Tuesday for greater coordination in Europe in the fight against money laundering.
